Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I work within the L&D team to create digital learning solutions for training needs.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy the programme. I love having the opportunity to come on campus and complete face to face learning.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt many new skills including UX Design and Graphic Design Fundamentals. I can really utilise these skills within my work to create a pleasant learner experience.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
I understand why assignments should overlap to get you thinking of how each skill combined creates successful digital design however, when you are working full time and assignments are due a week away from each other this is difficult to manage. A lot of time I have to then spend my weekend and evenings working late to get up to scratch which can be demotivating.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Great support and amazing L&D function to also support with development needs
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
